Flying Sword Refinement Method, Ma Gu's Ambition

"Master, you want to..."

Seeing the expression on his master's face, Lu Qing understood something.

"Judging from the situation in this village, the situation in other villages is probably not much better."

I'll go around and see how much the changes in nature affect ordinary people.

It's good to be prepared early, so we don't end up scrambling when something happens in the future.

The Old Doctor spoke in a somewhat heavy tone.

"Don't worry, Master, I'll take care of things at home."

Lu Qing nodded.

He knew that his master was a kind-hearted healer, and even after becoming a cultivator, he had not changed his mindset.

They certainly wouldn't bear to see ordinary people suffer.

In the past two years, his master would occasionally take him to travel around the surrounding villages and towns to provide free medical consultations for some elderly people who couldn't afford medical treatment.

It's normal to feel worried after being away for so long.

"Master, give me your sword, I'll help you refine it again."

After thinking for a moment, Lu Qing suddenly said.

"Reforge it? I think this sword is pretty good."

Without hesitation, the Old Doctor took out the sword and handed it to Lu Qing.

However, he had some doubts. In his opinion, the sword that Lu Qing had given him before was already good enough.

It is extremely sharp and indestructible. Even if he unleashes his full power, it cannot be damaged in the slightest. It is an extremely superior Divine Weapon weapon.

"This longsword was forged by me before. At that time, my forging skills were still very immature, so there are still many flaws," Lu Qing said with a smile.

The longsword he gave to his master was forged from Heavenly Meteorite Iron.

Back then, his Spiritual Power was not yet fully developed; he was only at the Acquired Realm and could barely forge it to the level of Divine Weapon.

To be honest, there are some hidden gems in the materials used to make the sword.

Now his strength has undergone a complete transformation, and he even possesses a forging Spirit Artifact like the Li Fire Cauldron.

It's time to help my master upgrade his weapons.

When Lu Qing placed the Divine Weapon, the longsword, into the Li Fire Cauldron, Yan's eyes nearly widened in surprise.

"A longsword forged entirely from Heavenly Meteorite Iron, yet it's just an ordinary sword. Who would be so wasteful of such a precious resource?"

Yan was very surprised.

It should be noted that Heavenly Meteorite Iron was considered an extremely precious Refining Materials, even in the Ancient Cultivation Era.

Many Artifact artifacts and treasures can be greatly improved in quality if some Heavenly Meteorite Iron is fused into them.

Heavenly Meteorite Iron is even considered one of the best materials for refining spiritual energy embryos, second only to rare Exotic Treasure like Chaos Divine Iron.

When the Li Fire Sect forged the Li Fire Cauldron, they incorporated a significant amount of Heavenly Meteorite Iron into its construction.

Even in the last words left by that Young Sect Master, when introducing the Li Fire Cauldron...

He also expressed regret that if their Li Fire Sect had possessed enough Heavenly Meteorite Iron, perhaps the Li Fire Cauldron would not have been defeated when it clashed with the enemy sect's Spirit Artifact.

It is easy to imagine how precious Heavenly Meteorite Iron is.

Seeing a mortal sword made entirely of Heavenly Meteorite Iron, how could "Yan" not be astonished?

"It was forged by this junior." Lu Qing was somewhat embarrassed. "When I forged this longsword, my cultivation was still shallow, and I was unable to condense any restrictions on it. I could only barely forge it into an ordinary weapon. I hope you will forgive my poor performance, senior."

Lu Qing knew that in the Ancient Cultivation Era, weapons and treasures were generally divided into four levels.

Ordinary weapons, Artifact, precious artifacts, and Spirit Artifact.

Therefore, although in the eyes of the world, the master's longsword can be completely called a peerless divine Divine Weapon.

However, since it lacks internal restrictions and cannot communicate with the power of heaven and earth, it is still just an ordinary weapon in the eyes of a master weapon refiner like "Yan".

"..." Upon hearing Lu Qing's words, "Yan" was speechless for a moment.

To everyone's surprise, the person it was referring to as a wasteful genius was actually Lu Qing.

For a moment, it didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, Lu Qing took the initiative to defuse the awkward situation, and said with a smile, "So this junior would like to ask senior to join me in reforging this precious sword. Oh, and this precious saber of mine too."

After saying that, Lu Qing took out his War Blade and put it into the Li Fire Cauldron as well.

"Another ordinary weapon, completely formed from the same material and forged from Heavenly Meteorite Iron?"

When Yan saw the long knife that Lu Qing had put in, his eyes widened again.

Lu Qing's War Blade, since his breakthrough, has not had time to be reforged and remains just an ordinary weapon.

After a while, "Yan" came to his senses, his eyes darting around, and asked, "Young master, do you have a lot of Heavenly Meteorite Iron?"

"There are quite a few, which I obtained from the Universe Qi Bag before." Lu Qing did not deny it.

"Originated from the Universe Qi Bag, how could that Taoist Xun Feng actually possess so much Heavenly Meteorite Iron?"

"The Taoist Xun Feng?" Lu Qing asked in confusion.

"Taoist Xun Feng was the former owner of this Universe Qi Bag. In the Ancient Cultivation Era, he was a well-known Nascent Soul Great Power."

He possesses exceptional wind-based Daoist Arts.

This Universe Qi Bag is his signature magic weapon.

However, this person has always been a loner and rarely interacts with others, making him quite mysterious.

I wonder what happened to him afterward, and why he lost the Universe Qi Bag.

"Yan" slowly explained.

"I see." Lu Qing understood.

When he first obtained the Universe Qi Bag, it's unclear whether it was because his cultivation level was too low or something else.

The information detected did not directly reveal the name of the being who created the Universe Qi Bag.

Only now did he realize that the other person's name was Taoist Xun Feng.

"This Taoist Xun Feng has an eccentric temperament and doesn't like to interact with people. In ancient times, he was a rather reclusive Primordial Spirit cultivator."

No one knows where he got so much Heavenly Meteorite Iron from.

"Yan" sighed.

The path of cultivation is inherently difficult, with countless hardships and obstacles along the way.

It can be said that none of those who have achieved the Primordial Spirit are simple individuals.

Especially those rogue cultivators with Nascent Soul Great Power, each of them has their own unique skills, formidable methods, and endless ways to protect themselves.

Major sects generally won't provoke them unless absolutely necessary.

Therefore, few people know what extraordinary encounters and profound knowledge they have had.

Just like now, if it weren't for Lu Qing, "Yan" would never have known.

The Plague Old Ghost had once obtained a rare Exotic Treasure like Chaos Divine Iron, and the Taoist Xun Feng had also collected a large amount of Heavenly Meteorite Iron.

Therefore, it can be inferred that every Nascent Soul Great Power is actually a person with abundant Destiny Fortune, each with their own destiny and extraordinary encounters.

"Yan" hesitated for a moment, then said, "Young master, since you have extra Heavenly Meteorite Iron, I wonder..."

"Senior needs Heavenly Meteorite Iron?"

"That's right. At the end of the Ancient Cultivation Era, the Li Fire Sect and the enemy sect fought to the death. I also clashed with their sect's treasured spiritual Spirit Artifact and fought for a long time."

Although both sides suffered damage in the end, I was the one who was more seriously injured. The body of the Li Fire Cauldron was also shaken open and cracked.

To this day, it has not fully recovered.

If I could absorb some Heavenly Meteorite Iron, I could not only completely repair the cauldron, but its essence might also become stronger.

Lu Qing recalled the information about the Li Fire Cauldron that he had obtained through his Supernatural Ability, as well as the last words left by the Young Sect Master of the Li Fire Sect, and knew that "Yan" had not lied.

The Li Fire Cauldron did indeed suffer severe damage, and when the Li Fire Sect forged this Spirit Artifact, they also incorporated a considerable amount of Heavenly Meteorite Iron into the cauldron.

He nodded. "Of course. If you can fully recover, it will be a great help to me."

"After I've finished refining these two weapons, I'll give the Heavenly Meteorite Iron to you to absorb."

Although Heavenly Meteorite Iron is precious, the Li Fire Cauldron is now Lu Qing's Spirit Artifact.

If it could be completely repaired, it would be entirely beneficial to him.

"Without further ado, let's begin now!"

Upon hearing this, Yan immediately became impatient.

Lu Qing smiled slightly and also focused his mind into the Li Fire Cauldron to begin refining the swords.

The next day, Lu Qing took out the refined swords and threw a large piece of Heavenly Meteorite Iron into the cauldron, letting "Yan" slowly absorb it on its own.

He then took the newly forged sword and went to the Half-Mountain Courtyard.

"Is this a reforged sword?"

The Old Doctor took the long sword and examined it carefully.

The longsword had changed its appearance, becoming even more chilling.

Most importantly, Secret Talisman are faintly visible on the sword's blade, exuding a very mystical aura.

"Master, I have infused this sword with Water-Fire Restriction, which can guide and amplify the spiritual energy and Spiritual Power of the water and fire elements."

"Your master is skilled in the Water and Fire Dao, which should suit you well."

Lu Qing explained.

"Indeed, I can faintly sense that the power within this sword resonates with the Spiritual Power within my body." The Old Doctor looked surprised. "A Qing, how should this magic sword be used?"

"After the master recognizes you by dripping blood, you can refine it with your mind and spirit at any time."

Over time, this sword will become one with your heart.

Once you have completely refined it, you can even incorporate it into your Dantian to aid your cultivation.

And this jade slip, Master, please keep it. It contains the method for refining flying swords.

Once you're familiar with it, you can add your own restrictions to nurture this magical sword.

Lu Qing took out a jade slip and handed it to his master.

Although he has only refined this sword with a layer of Water-Fire Restriction, it is currently only a low-grade magic sword.

However, due to its excellent foundation, its power is actually no less than that of those treasure-level magic swords.

Once the master learns the Flying Sword Refinement Method, he will be able to add restrictions and enhance the power of the magic sword himself in the future.

"That's fine, then I won't have to bother you every time."

The Old Doctor accepted the jade slip without hesitation.

Seeing his master put the jade slip away, Lu Qing smiled.

It's strange, really. My master has always been a kind and compassionate doctor, but his talent in swordsmanship is astonishing.

Despite having barely killed anyone, he was able to comprehend Sword Qi Domain capable of unparalleled offensive power.

The path of cultivation is indeed profound and unfathomable.

After obtaining the magic sword, the Old Doctor did not linger. He slung his Medicine Basket over his shoulder and headed down the mountain, intending to travel around the surrounding villages.

Lu Qing watched his master's figure leave, and only looked away after he disappeared from sight.

"Young master, your master is truly an extraordinary person."

After learning the purpose of the Old Doctor's trip while Li Fire Cauldron, Yan felt even more respect for the old man.

Despite being a cultivator, he remained true to his original aspirations and dedicated himself to treating a group of frail mortals.

With such a mindset, as long as one doesn't give up halfway, one is bound to achieve Major Accomplishment in the future.

"My master has always been like this."

Lu Qing noticed the unusual tone in Yan's voice and smiled.

He originally wanted to go to the free clinic with his master, but the current situation did not allow them to let their guard down.

After all, they had made quite a few enemies during their trip to Central Province.

With those enemies as their only options, finding out their origins and whereabouts is probably only a matter of time.

If he and his master went out, but their enemies came looking for them, that would be very bad.

Therefore, Nine Li Village still needs him to guard it.

As for the master, there is the magic sword he forged, plus the master's Sword Qi Domain.

Lu Qing believed that in the world today, among those at the Innate Realm, there was probably no one who could threaten his master.

The Old Doctor usually need to spend ten days to half a month going out for free clinics.

So for the rest of the time, Lu Qing and Xiao Yan simply stayed in the Half-Mountain Courtyard.

After all, it's quiet here, so whatever he does won't disturb the villagers.

The following afternoon, the Wei Clan's convoy arrived at the Half-Mountain Courtyard once again.

"Brother Lu Qing!"

"Little Doctor Lu!"

It was Grand Steward Wei was escorting the caravan again, but this time Ma Gu and Wei Zi'an, master and apprentice, were also with them.

"You've come too, why don't you stay home a little longer?"

Lu Qing smiled when he saw the two of them.

"Well, I got tired of staying at home, so I wanted to come and play at this villa."

My master, however, was forced into marriage by his family and came to this village to seek refuge!

Wei Zi'an made a startling remark, revealing a bombshell piece of news.

"Oh, is Master Ma getting married?"

Lu Qing looked at Ma Gu in surprise.

"Nothing of the sort, Brother Lu Qing, don't listen to this brat's nonsense!" Ma Gu glared at his disciple and shook his head. "That's just my parents nagging. I've never thought about anything like that."

"Does Master Ma have no intention of getting married?"

Lu Qing was somewhat surprised.

Ma Gu is now over thirty years old. In this era, even though Martial Artist have long lifespans, he is already considered quite Eldest Brother.

Surprisingly, he had never considered starting a family.

"Having seen the view from the summit, how can one be content with mediocrity?" Ma Gu said solemnly.

"Right now, I only want to focus on martial arts, strive to break through and enter the Innate Realm. I will not think about matters of men and women at all."

If it were the old Ma Gu, perhaps he would have obeyed his parents' wishes, honestly found a good family to marry, had children, and lived a peaceful life.

After all, he knew his own talent; no matter how hard he tried, he could never become Martial Dao Grandmaster and enter the Innate Realm.

However, after his trip to Central Province, he has witnessed the clashes of many powerful figures, especially the impressive demeanor of Lu Qing and the Old Doctor.

Furthermore, after absorbing a Source Qi, his aptitude greatly increased.

Ma Gu's goals have quietly changed.

He was no longer satisfied with just becoming a Martial Artist in the Acquired Realm; he wanted to climb to a higher peak of martial arts and see more beautiful scenery.

Even just to catch a glimpse of the legendary path of immortal cultivation.

Compared to this, what are mere matters of men and women?
